Pompous Pilot found Jesus innocent, and tried to get out of executing him, but the Pharisees had leverage over him to force him into it- likely threatening yet another rebellion.

Yeah, and it was still Roman soldiers who physically nailed Jesus to the Cross for all our sins. Both Jews and gentiles are just as guilty.

More, it was our sin that meant he had to die for us. Each and every individual sin we do is only washed away by the blood of Jesus, and so each is sufficient for Jesus to die for us. So in a sense, every time you sin you are guilty of nailing Jesus to the cross. So not just the Jews and Romans killed Jesus, but so did we. We condemned him to die by our individual sins, as it was the only way to save us.

May I offer a timid non-Christian conservative take on Jesus? I think Jesus was murdered by his government because he spoke of things that threatened their power: such as universal love and self-love, the wisdom of God, and knowledge of higher self. These three things are the very ANTITHESIS of state power. They THRIVE in the vaccuum of these very important things.

They did indeed consider Him a threat to their power - but that was because they feared that He would gather enough of a following to start a revolt against the Romans - which they believed would lead to Jerusalem being sacked and their precious Temple being destroyed.
Jesus had no intention of attempting any such thing of course. But they were unwilling to take the chance.

Modern totalitarian governments very often do oppose Christianity for the reasons you've stated: they want everything be revolve around "the State", and the Christian religion does not do that.
 
As rough as Italians are now they were even worse before they had pasta and tomato sauce to help them calm the hell down.

The ancient Romans were living peacefully in their little Italian village by the Tiber, until a bunch of obnoxious Frenchies showed up and traumatized everyone there so badly that they became an expansionist imperial power, conquering everyone around them, so that the humiliation they'd experienced from those obnoxious Frenchies Would Never Happen Again.
